Pune, Jan 21: Anna Hazare finally broke his silence and expressed his feeling over the news of Kiran Bedi joining politics. Hazare on Wednesday, Jan 21 hit out at Bedi who has been announced as the chief ministerial candidate of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) for Delhi assembly election.

Bedi was quoted as saying, "I called Anna ji on the telephone, sometimes he was sleeping, sometimes he was taking rest." However, media reports claimed that Bedi sentan envoy from Pune to Ralegan Siddhi but it was of no use.

She added and said that she was not in touch with the activist since their last agitation a year ago. Hazare, on the other hand, is said to be extremely hurt with Bedi's decision to join the BJP without consulting it with him.

Ironically both Hazare and Bedi were against Arvind Kejriwal entering politics in 2012. Kejriwal was another crucial member of IAC movement.
